Wedding in less than 50 days!

on February 9, 2020 at 11:47 PM Posted in Planning 0 7

Any thoughts on feeling like people are not as involved enough in the planning process? Family, bridesmaids, friends etc... I’m also aware on the understanding level that we all live our own daily life but still I feel like I haven’t gotten enough from many for this very important day. Anybody else?

    I think people aren't as excited for wedding planning as we hope they'd be but doesn't mean they're not excited for you

    Definitely feel like this. Only 1 friend is as excited about planning and actively involved. But that’s okay. I️ had to realize that my closest friends live in different states and have lots going on in their lives.

    Personally I would feel the same if I notice my wedding party are not as excited or interactive. I understand they have their own lives, but when it comes to 1-2 months before the wedding, I would create a group chat to make sure everyone is on the same page. And perhaps gather the bridemaids for some down time.. dinner or spa Smiley smile

    Well planning is on the couple not their guests or wedding party. Like the first poster said it's your day and no one will be as excited as you. I try to limit bothering my MOH because while I was involved for her wedding not all the time or any other time I have been a bridesmaid so I try not to do the same. Sorry to sound harsh as it's not my intention but really the planning falls on your two.

    I'm 100 days out. I'm still planning and buying. There is nothing for anyone to do right now but me. But when needed my friends and family are gonna be so hands on. My brothers girlfriend just texted me yesterday "let me know if u need anything." And I sure am gonna have her at my mom's the night before ironing linens.

    Yes I feel like this sometimes... I learned that wedding planning is MY LIFE not everyone else’s. It would be nice sometimes to get a “hows wedding planning going” or “let me know if you need anything” text or call but I don’t let it bother me anymore. As long as my FH and our son are happy that’s enough to keep me going😊

    I'm just over 100 days out, but I'm almost certain I will feel this way. My mom and best friend (my MOH) live out of state so it's been difficult for them to be as involved as I'd like.

    I do have local friends who will step up as I need them to, but I don't want to expect too much from anyone and want it to be fun for all of our guests too.
